Sept. 21st, Calor!

This week has been going really well. We have had some really good new investigators. We opened this area and there was only 1 investigator in the entire area. But this area we were able to visit with 3 new families we found and we have planned this week to visit with another 3. We can tell that there are some people we have found that will progress really well. One of them is the Justiniano family. They were really glad that we could find them and the wife told us after our second visit with them that she was really grateful we found them.

Also yesterday at church a new person came up to us and told us he wanted to get baptized. He said he met with the missionaries once a while ago and he wants us to go visit him. We are going to visit him on Tuesday and we are going to see how it goes.

But our area seems like it is just less active. When we contact street literally every other house is less actives. It seems like missionaries get here and just baptized everybody, they were active for awhile and then just became less active. The work here really is just reactivating people.

The work here is going really well. We are going to rescue some people.

Jacob 4:10 - "Wherefore, brethren, seek not to counsel the Lord, but to take counsel from his hand." I found this in my person study this morning and I liked it a lot. It made me think a lot.
